PTTP productions will continue during February

Performances by the Professional Theatre Training Program will continue during February in Hartshorn Hall.

An Ideal Husband, Oscar Wilde's timeless and effervescent comedy, concerns itself with the attempted blackmail of a rising politician and the moral code to which all public figures, not to mention blackmailers, are subject. With typical Wildean wit and dazzling repartee, An Ideal Husband has more than its share of dandies, dukes, duplicity and decorum as it continues to delight and enlighten audiences.

Evening performances are scheduled at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 1, 7, 14 and 16. Matinees at 12:30 p.m., will be presented on Feb. 3 and 9.

In The Doctor's Dilemma, George Bernard Shaw offers audiences a story of a brilliant physician, Dr. Colenso Ridgeson, who has discovered a cure for tuberculosis but is faced with a medical and moral quandary. Who should be the recipient of the doctor's discovery: a fellow physician who devotes himself to healing the poor, or a brilliant, yet unscrupulous artist who just happens to be the husband of the woman Ridgeson loves?

This wicked satire is a piercing, thought-provoking and shockingly contemporary inquiry into the ethical standards of the medical profession.

The Doctor's Dilemma can be seen at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 2, 9 and 15 and at 12:30 p.m. on Feb. 2 and 16.

George Bernard Shaw's comedy, Candida, is scheduled at 7:30 p.m., Feb. 8, and at 12:30 p.m., Feb. 17. One of Shaw's most popular plays, the comedy revolves around a love triangle involving Candida, her husband and a love-sick poet.

All performances are in Hartshorn Hall. Ticket prices for the performances range from $7 to $17. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 831-2204.
